Thoughts and Actions
Some people go through life standing at the excuse counter.
They say they’d like to do this or that, but then they offer all the excuses in the world for why they can’t do whatever it is. No matter what the excuses are, the only thing that is usually limiting them is their own self-perception.
If I’ve learned anything, I’ve learned that a person —any person —may do anything they set their mind on doing. The things you need are willingness to work for what you want, patience to learn what you need to know and, most important of all, belief in yourself. You only need a seed, and then your faith in yourself will grow with you as you move forward.
If your self-perception is that you can’t accomplish something because you’re not smart enough, then take the time to learn what you need to know, and then your self-perception will change.
If your self-perception is that you can’t accomplish something because you never finish anything you start, then go and finish something and change your self- perception.
If your self-perception is that you’re too lazy, too busy, too unworthy, too unfocused, too depressed, or too dependent on others to accomplish great things, then you’re right. You are that because you believe you are, but in fact, you can change that! Life is change, and the past doesn’t equal the future. Your reality today is the result of your past beliefs and actions. Change your beliefs and actions, and you will change your future. Whether you think you can or you can’t, you’re right. You are what you think.
Think about that the next time you need an excuse.

有些人的一生都在借口中度過(guò)。
他們總是說(shuō)喜歡這喜歡那,只是隨之給出各種理由來(lái)解釋他為什么沒(méi)能去做。但無(wú)論是什么借口,唯一能限制他們行為的通常只是他們的自我認(rèn)知。

如果你自認(rèn)為是因不夠聰明而不能完成某件事情,那么就花些時(shí)間去學(xué)習(xí)所需要的`知識(shí),這樣,你的自我認(rèn)知就會(huì)改變。

We’re Just Beginning
“We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pages are infinite…”
I do not know who wrote those words, but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it. We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just as a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the remainder of our lives.
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will affect it. Each day brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our business, if we only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.
翻譯：一切剛剛開(kāi)始
“我們正在讀一本書(shū)的第一章第一行，這本書(shū)的頁(yè)數(shù)是無(wú)限的……”
我不知道是誰(shuí)寫(xiě)的，可我很喜歡這句話，它提醒我們未來(lái)是由自己創(chuàng)造的。我們可以把神秘、不可知的未來(lái)塑造成我們想象中的任何模樣，猶如雕刻家將未成形的石頭刻成雕像。英語(yǔ)勵(lì)志短文
我們每個(gè)人都像是農(nóng)夫。灑下良種將有豐收，播下劣種或生滿野草便將毀去收成。沒(méi)有耕耘則會(huì)一無(wú)所獲。
我希望未來(lái)比過(guò)去更加美好，希望未來(lái)不會(huì)沾染歷史的錯(cuò)誤與過(guò)失。我們都應(yīng)舉目向前，因我們的余生要用未來(lái)書(shū)寫(xiě)。
往昔已逝，靜如止水；我們無(wú)法再作改變。而前方的未來(lái)正生機(jī)勃勃；我們所做的每一件事都將會(huì)影響著它。只要我們認(rèn)識(shí)到這些，無(wú)論是在家中還是在工作上，每天我們的面前都會(huì)展現(xiàn)出新的天地。在人類(lèi)致力開(kāi)拓的每一片領(lǐng)域上，我們正站在進(jìn)步的起跑點(diǎn)。

The Soundest Investment of All
by C. Jared Ingersoll
I feel very presumptuous and uncomfortable about trying to explain out loud the things Ibelieve in. But I do think that all human problems are in some way related to each other, soperhaps if people compare their experiences they may discover something in common in huntingthe answers.
I am a very fortunate man for I lead a full and what is for me a happy life. I say this eventhough I happen to have had, in the course of it, a couple of severe personal blows.
My first wife collapsed and died one day while she and I were ice skating, after eighteen years ofa most happy existence together. My only son, a sergeant in the army combat engineers, waskilled in Italy in the last war. Nevertheless, these tragedies did not throw me completely and Ihave been able to fill my life anew with happiness.
I do not mean to sound calloused. Those blows hurt me deeply. I guess that two basicallyimportant things helped me most to recover. One is the fact that I have come to see life as agamble. The other is a belief in what some people call the hereafter. I try to live fully so thatwhen and if my luck changes there will be little room for regret or recrimination over time lost ormisspent. My belief in the hereafter is wrapped in the intangible but stubborn thoughts of alayman. Very likely I would get lost in trying to describe or defend, by cold logic, my belief inGod but nobody could argue me out of it.
I have come to believe that I owe life as much as it owes me, and I suppose that explains thisfine satisfaction I get out of endeavoring to do a job to the best of what ability I have, and outof helping somebody else.
As a kid I used to ride a rake in the hayfields. I got a tremendous kick out of trying to sweepevery field clean as a whistle. Here I made a surprising and happy discovery: that there couldbe actual enjoyment in the exercise of thoroughness and responsibility, and that duty didn’thave to be a drudge.
I don’t know exactly why, but I like to do things for other people. Not only familyresponsibilities, work on a hospital board, and various church organizations but also the mostinconsequential things that might hardly seem worth the time. My office happens to be onIndependence Square and now and then I have occasion to direct a tourist to the Liberty Bell orfill him in on a little of the history of Philadelphia. The tourist doesn’t seem to mind and it makesme feel good. I’m afraid I’m not very profound. I have tried to comprehend why somethingso simple and so sound as the Golden Rule is so often forgotten or held in disrepute. I canonly say—and I say this quite selfishly—that I have found it a good investment. It has paid me avery high return, undoubtedly more than I deserve.

未來(lái)盡在掌控
We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just like a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the reminder of our lives.
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will effect it.
Each day will brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our businesses, if we will only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.

What is your most ideal day? Do you know exactly how you want to live your life for the next five days, five weeks, five months or five years? When was the last best day of your life? When is the next?
你最理想的一天生活是怎樣的?你知道你想怎樣度過(guò)接下來(lái)的五天、五周、五個(gè)月甚至五年嗎?你度過(guò)的最后一個(gè)美好的一天是什么時(shí)候?下一個(gè)美好的一天又將何時(shí)到來(lái)?
The best day of our lives is today. The past is no longer here. We cannot enjoy it any longer. To dwell on the past is to waste the opportunity to enjoy the present. The future is a promise, a time that will not come because what we have is only today. When tomorrow comes, it will not be tomorrow any more; it becomes your today. You cannot enjoy tomorrow unless you know how to enjoy your today. If you are to live thirty more years, you are going to experience 10,950 todays. But every day that passes without your notice is a day cut off from your life. Your life is a day shorter every new day.
在我們的.生活中,今天是最美好的。過(guò)去已經(jīng)消逝,我們無(wú)法再享受它。沉溺于過(guò)去只會(huì)糟蹋了享受現(xiàn)在的機(jī)會(huì)。未來(lái)是一句承諾,一段尚未來(lái)到的時(shí)光,因?yàn)槲覀儞碛械闹皇乾F(xiàn)在。當(dāng)明天到來(lái),它也即將不再是明天,而變成你的今天。只有當(dāng)你懂得如何珍視今天,你才能學(xué)會(huì)如何享受明天。如果你還有三十年的光陰,你將經(jīng)歷10950個(gè)今天。但每一個(gè)逝去卻得不到你注意的日子都是生命的一天損失。每一個(gè)嶄新的一天都意味著生命隨之減少一天。
Each day is a decision to live. Today is a gift; this is why it is called the "present". How you use this day is up to you. At each new day, you decide whether to unwrap that gift, or let it stay in the corner and spoil. Each day is a decision to live your ideal life.
每天都是一次生活地選擇。今天是一份禮物,這也正是為什么它被稱作"禮物"(英文中,"現(xiàn)在"一詞也有"禮物"地意思)。你將如何利用這一天是你地選擇。每天,你都要作出選擇:是拆開(kāi)這份禮物,還是把它留在墻角,毀掉它。每天都是一次通往理想生活地抉擇。

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

In the reign of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty, Grand General Huo Guang was a minister who occupied a decisive position at court and was deeply trusted by the emperor. when Emperor Wudi was dying, he entrusted Huo Guang with the task of assisting his youngest son Liu fuelling (Emperor Zhaodi)in go verning the country. After the death of Emperor Zhaodi,Huo Guang made Liu Xun the emperor. who was Emperor Xuandi of the Han Dynasty. Controlling the imperial government for more than 40 years ,Huo Guang had rendered fairly outstanding service to the Western Han Dynasty. After Liu Xun ascended the throne, he made Imperial Concubine Xu his queen. Hankering after wealth and rank, Huo Guang's wife Huo Xian tried to make her youngest daughter Chengjun the queen of Lin Xun. So ,taking the opportunity of the queen's illness, Huo Xian bribed a woman doctor who poisoned the queen to death. The venomous scheme was brought to light,and the woman doctor was put into jail. Huo Guang knew nothing about it beforehand, and it was not until after the event that his wife told him about it. Seized with terror, Huo Guang reproached his wife for doing such a thing, He thought of reporting his wife for her crime, but at the same time did not have the beart to have her wife punished. After much hesitation, he conceited the thing offensive to God and reason in the end. After Huo Guang died,Emperor Xuandi was informed of the case. Someone was sent to investigate it. Hearing this,Huo Guang's wife discussed with her family members and trusted followers in order to find a way to deal with her family members and trusted followers in order to find a way to deal with the situation. Three decided to call the clansmen together to stage a rebellion. But the secret was divulged. Emperor Xuandi sent troops to surround Hue's home, and all the members of Hue's family were executed. Commenting on the merits and demerits of Huo Guang, historian Ban Gu(32-92) said in "The Life of Huo Guang "in his History of the Han Dynasty that Huo Guang "had neither knowledge nor skill and did not understand the major principles". That is to say, Huo Guang did not understand the truths concerning the overall situation because he did not study and had no knowledge. The set phrase" having neither knowledge nor skill" is later used to refer to being ignorant and incompetent.

Mistakes and errors are the disciplined true which we advance in life. Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to risk making mistakes in the pursuit of their goals and aspirations, and who are able to learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes you must be willing to pay for them.
Mistakes can be enormously valuable, but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes, then you deprive yourself of the opportunity to learn from them. When something goes wrong, it's usually very easy to find someone else to blame, but what does that really accomplish?
Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they demand a cost that must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the person who pays the price for that mistake.
When you make a mistake, the lastthing you want to do is run away from it. You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has been made, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow that much stronger.
When you make a mistake, don't look back at it long. Remember the reason for it, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The present is still in your power. Take full advantage of your mistakes to achieve your goals and aspirations.

過(guò)失和錯(cuò)誤讓我們辨別是非,幫助我們前進(jìn)。錯(cuò)誤是偉大的老師。成功總是眷顧那些敢于冒著犯錯(cuò)的危險(xiǎn)去追求他們的目標(biāo)和理想,并善于從錯(cuò)誤中吸取教訓(xùn)的人。為了從過(guò)失中吸取教訓(xùn),你必須愿意為之付出代價(jià)。
錯(cuò)誤可能具有巨大的價(jià)值,但是如果你想讓別人來(lái)為你的錯(cuò)誤付出代價(jià),那你就喪失了從錯(cuò)誤中學(xué)習(xí)的機(jī)會(huì)。當(dāng)出了差錯(cuò)時(shí),去責(zé)備他人總是很容易的。但是那又有什么用呢?
